1. What kind of tea is rooibos tea?
Rooibos tea is a tea made from leguminous trees that grow in the Cedarberg Mountains in South Africa.The Cedarberg Range is also famous for its strong sunlight and temperature difference of more than 30 degrees between morning and evening.
Rooibos tea made in such a harsh natural environment is rich in minerals and polyphenols.“Rooibos” means “red bush” in the local language.As the word suggests, rooibos tea is generally characterized by a reddish brown color.
However, while reddish-brown rooibos tea is made by fermentation, there is also “green rooibos tea” that is not fermented.Green rooibos tea is more nutritious, but it tends to be more expensive.
The reddish-brown rooibos tea is a little surprising for us Japanese who are used to green tea, but it is very easy to drink because it has a mild sweetness.Unlike other teas, it does not contain much tannins, so it has little astringency.
In addition, since it does not contain caffeine, it is a great feature that even small children can drink it safely during pregnancy, pregnancy, and postpartum breastfeeding.
2. What are the effects of rooibos tea?
Rooibos tea has no habit and is easy to drink, but what kind of effect does it have?From here, I will introduce the charm of rooibos tea, so please refer to it.
Increases active enzymes and promotes blood flow
Rooibos tea contains an ingredient called quercetin.This quercetin has the function of suppressing the action and production of active oxygen.
When active oxygen increases, it accelerates the decline of immunity and accelerates aging.Quercetin is what prevents this.
In addition, quercetin has the function of promoting blood flow, which smoothes blood flow and protects blood vessels.
aid metabolism
Rooibos tea is also rich in magnesium.Magnesium acts as an enzyme that assists in various metabolisms in the body.
It also binds with calcium to control muscle contraction and dilate blood vessels to lower blood pressure.
Relief of allergy symptoms
Flavonoids, a type of polyphenol contained in rooibos tea, have strong antibacterial properties.For this reason, flavonoids have the effect of alleviating the symptoms of allergies.
In addition, there is SOD to suppress the action of active oxygen that has increased excessively in the body. SOD stands for "superoxide dismutase" and is an enzyme that removes excess superoxide anions (a type of active oxygen) in the body. (reference:The Chemistry of Reactive Oxygen and Antioxidants)
Rooibos tea contains flavonoids, which have the same effect as SOD, and have the effect of suppressing allergies such as hay fever.
In addition, rooibos tea has the effect of suppressing active oxygen, and is said to be effective for hay fever and atopic dermatitis.However, caution is required because it does not have an immediate effect to suppress active oxygen.
By continuing to drink, the symptoms of people with hay fever will be alleviated during the hay fever season.I would definitely recommend anyone with allergies to give this a try.
Constipation
Rooibos tea contains magnesium, which absorbs water from the intestines and softens stools.Magnesium is an essential ingredient for relieving constipation, which is also included in over-the-counter laxatives.
In addition to relieving constipation, it is also known to have an intestinal regulation effect, such as softening hard stools and returning soft stools to moderately hard stools.This is the result of drinking about XNUMX cups of water per day.
Diet effect
Rooibos tea is non-caloric and sugar-free, so it is recommended for those who are on a diet or have dietary restrictions.The "magnesium" contained in rooibos tea has the function of efficiently increasing metabolism, and when combined with exercise, you can burn calories more efficiently.
In addition, the "potassium" contained in rooibos tea has a diuretic effect, making it easier to improve swelling.It is popular as a hydration supplement for people on a diet because it can change the impression of your appearance just by removing the swelling.
Relaxing effect
One of the reasons why rooibos tea is popular with women is that it has a relaxing effect.“Magnesium,” which I mentioned earlier and can be expected to have a diet effect, also has the function of suppressing the excitement of nerves and returning them to normal.
Therefore, drinking it when you are irritated or want to relax will calm your mind.In addition, rooibos tea does not contain caffeine, which is not recommended in excess.
From this, it can be said that it is an attractive tea that can be drunk by anyone, from small children to pregnant women.

3. Does rooibos tea prevent gray hair?
So far, I have introduced the charm of rooibos tea.From here, I will explain the relationship between rooibos tea and gray hair prevention.
There are four main effects of rooibos tea:
·antioxidant effect
・Promote the secretion of female hormones
・ Promotion of blood circulation
・Increase metabolism
All of these effects are related to the prevention of gray hair.Drinking rooibos tea can also be expected to have an aging effectThat's why.
All of these effects are related to the prevention of gray hair, and drinking rooibos tea can also be expected to have an anti-aging effect.In particular, it contains a lot of flavonoids, which are expected to have antioxidant effects and have antioxidant effects that protect the body from active oxygen caused by ultraviolet rays.
Aging and aging have a great effect on gray hair.In particular, hormonal imbalance and poor blood circulation prevent necessary nutrients from reaching the hair.
When this happens, the melanin pigment in the hair follicle is no longer produced and the probability of graying hair increases.Therefore, it can be said that the effect of rooibos tea is also effective in improving gray hair.
